Long-anticipated pedestrian safety improvements are set to move forward this month. American Road Marking will be on-site from May 19 through May 20 to implement several upgrades identified through the NCDOT/VHB Pedestrian Study. These improvements are designed to enhance safety and visibility at key pedestrian crossings throughout the Town.
Planned Improvements Include:
Sunset Grille Area:
- Installation of a “Bike Lane Ends” sign (southbound)
- New pavement markings to improve the bike lane transition
Christopher Drive:
- Painted pedestrian refuge median
- Flexible delineator poles and new signage
Scarborough Lane Shoppes:
- Painted pedestrian refuge median
- Flexible delineator poles and new signage
Aqua Area:
- Painted pedestrian refuge median
- Flexible delineator poles and new signage
- Installation of a “Bike Lane Ends” sign (northbound)
